  • Nice shots Ashon. Sharp and Clear, especially for 500mm hand held!!
    Now here is an interesting thing about the moon shots. Take a look at Chrissy's shot and then yours. I have a friend in Washington State that showed a moon shot through a telescope and hers is like yours, the prominent crater on the bottom in yours is in a different location than Chrissy's or one that I did here in CT last year. I haven't found the answer to that yet. here's mine and here's the West Coast one I thought it was a mirroring thing because of the telescope, but guess not.

    PS, I had to do mine on a tripod!!

    - So shoot already!!

  • I like the first one best, even if it is a little smaller (its brighter, easier to see)

    I also noticed things were getting twisted around, Post-processing?

    Wow, that 300 hand held is great! I've tried 300 with a tri-pod and didn't get a shot like that.  Good job.
